Members of the United States Congress are reportedly considering targeted sanctions, including asset freezes and visa bans, against former Kano State Governor Rabiu Kwankwaso, the Miyetti Allah herdsmen group, and other individuals recently placed on a terrorist designation list.

According to emerging reports, the proposed measures would involve financial restrictions and travel bans aimed at individuals and entities accused of activities linked to terrorism or destabilization.

While details of the congressional deliberations are still unfolding, sources indicate that the sanctions under consideration would fall within existing U.S. counterterrorism and global security frameworks.

There has been no official confirmation yet from U.S. authorities regarding the timeline or final decision on the proposed sanctions. Further updates are expected as the situation develops.
